I dont understand, COVID-19 cases in the UK per-day per-capita are far lower than the United States.

The numbers show there is something going on with Brazil, but cases per-capita are far lower in the UK and South Africa then in the US.

The UK is generally running about half the number of cases per-day per-capita over the USA.

COVID-19 is certainly a real pathogen that has countless amounts of disease and mortality but it seems like there is one lie after another about the current status of the pandemic and very few question it.

Think we all are either sick of it, or over saturated -and have incorporated the mask thing into our daily lives and just can’t listen to it anymore. Overkill with the news, sorry to say. I am 67 and pray I’ll get past it- I live with the grands and son. They come and go, play sports - eat out - work, hang with their buds, only God can protect me.

Let's put it this way: if the Wuhan Virus was really deemed a threat far greater than the flu or seasonal influenza - they would have us all wearing serious N95 masks and gloves when we go out - if they let us go out at all. The flimsy paper masks do nothing at all - says so on the package. Yes it effects a certain elderly segment of the population - but they destroyed the economy using the virus for other reasons. And they want us to believe that the seasonal flu has dropped by 98%.

"Epidemiologist compares Covid-19 variant to a "Category 5 hurricane" brewing off the US coast"

The media and fed. gov. continue to escalate the hype out of proportion to the treat and people are getting immune (see what I did there) to the warnings and dire predictions.

I guess soon it will be "like a giant asteroid about to strike California". Meh, not so much

This might be sewing the seeds for a true long-duration hard lock down - to further destroy the economy. There would be such widespread govt. and business failures that politicians would promote hyper-printing of the currency which would ultimately destroy it (wiping out everyone's 401k's/IRA's) so that they could institute a new FED/IMF - SDR backed "credit" system which would put everyone under their strict control.

Hopefully it gets rid of the non mask wearing rednecks and haters of the human race. The world would be a better place.

Let it rip !

I agree ! America wants to ruin it's own economy by importing some slanted eye virus to their shores so they can destroy pedophile rings and investment bankers and 401ks from hardworking taxpayers. Oh yea. I see the writing on the wall.

COVID-19 is excellent for the "Wall Street economy". I wonder if the stock market and real estate will skyrocket if these Category 5 "variants" come ashore and spread through America.

The stimulus from COVID-19 1st wave caused 15 trillion dollars in extra stock market capitalization much of because of federal reserve having a 7 trillion out of thin air balance sheet and making sure savings accounts pay negative interest rates after inflation.

The "Main Street Economy" is becoming a relic of the past in areas that chose to do lockdowns.

The U.K. variant has been in Michigan for over a month now yet our cases and positivity rate have continued to decline and our VERY pro-shutdown Governor has reopened a bunch more things. The media hype over these variants, so far anyway, seems to be extremely exaggerated.
